google site verification not working #72

Hi, I was trying to verify the page by adding the TXT records to the google_site_verification, but I got the following error message.

We couldn't find your verification token in your domain's TXT records. Sometimes DNS changes can take a while to appear. Please wait a few hours, then reopen your property in Search Console. If verification fails again, try adding a different DNS TXT record.

I have tried a couple of time this week, but it still didn't work.

May I ask how to set it up? Thanks!

ok, solved. use the URL prefix verification not the domain, then download the html file and upload it to the root folder.
